J3574 : Cuming Road, Belfast

Cuming Road, Belfast

Closed and disused road in Belfast docks, running from the Sydenham Road to the former Hamilton Road J3574 : Hamilton Road, Belfast. It is still shown as a road on the Google maps but it is totally inaccessible - this picture was taken through a hole in locked gates at the end of the road.
The road was formed c1918-1919 and named in 1920; it probably fell into disuse with the construction of the Harland and Wolff building dock in the late 1960s. Unusually for streets around Belfast docks, the origin of the road name appears unknown.
